Question

    Some amount was divided among A, B and C in the ratio 4:5:8. If the share of A is 32 less than share of C, then find the 1/4th of total amount (in Rs).

    A 42 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 34 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 63 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A : B : C = 4 : 5 : 8 A : B : C = 4x : 5x : 8x => A = C – 32 => 4x = 8x – 32 => x = 8 A + B + C = 4x + 5x + 8x = 17x = 17×8 = 136 => 1/4×136 = 34
